Now, the university has on-campus dorms and houses in an area of , which offers academic programs with a strong emphasis on scientific, engineering, and technological education & research. Currently the university is ranked as the top engineering institute of Pakistan by the HEC in "engineering and technology" cateogory, as of 2013.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.hec.gov.pk/INSIDEHEC/DIVISIONS/QALI/OTHERS/RANKINGOFUNIVERSITIES/Pages/CategoryWise.aspx# )〕 QS World University Rankings ranked the institute top in Pakistan and 106th in Asia.〔(Rank )〕 ==History== The institute was established as a "Reactor School" under the management of PAEC.

When Munir Khan became Chairman, PAEC, he started emphasizing need for technical education in specialized areas. The Centre for Nuclear Studies started offering Nuclear Orientation Courses, Health Physics Courses, Laser Courses of six to nine-month duration. In 1988, it expanded its scope with the addition of a MSc program in Systems Engineering and in Nuclear Medicine in 1989. The institute gained its current name in 1997; in 2000, by efforts of Dr. Inam ur Rehamn, Dr. Abdullah Sadiq, Dr. Ishfaq Ahmad (then Chairman, PAEC) and Faculty, it was granted the university charter by Government of Pakistan.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Pakistan Institute of Engineering and Applied Sciences」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
